Waugh, Frederick Coulton (sold)
Frederick Coulton Waugh (March 10, 1896 - May 23, 1973) was an American artist, painter, and writer based in Provincetown, MA, and later Newburgh, New York. Waugh was born in Cornwall, England. He immigrated to the United States in 1907 and settled in Philadelphia with his father, maritime painter Frederick Judd Waugh (grandson of portraitist Samuel Waugh). Coulton enrolled in New York's Art Students League, where he studied with George Bridgman, Frank Dumond, and John Carlson. In 1916, he took work as a textile designer before moving to Provincetown in 1918 to open a model ship and hooked rug shop. Coulton is best known for his comic strip Dickie Dare and his book The Comics, a comprehensive study of comic strips that traces their history. Coulton also taught art, wrote instructional and educational art books, and edited home study course art textbooks. A professional sailor, he drew historic ships and created decorative nautically themed maps. His 'serious' paintings, first displayed at the Hudson Walker Gallery in New York, were, according to one writer, 'enough to give his father's admirers the jitters.' In cartography, Waugh is known for several pictorial maps, including a 'Map of Silk,' Provincetown (1924), Cape Cod (1926), Cape Ann (1927), Old Cape Cod (1930), Long Island, and the Hudson River (1958). He also issued a map of California (1940) in collaboration with his wife, Odin Burvik (aka Mabel Burwick).

This is a 1928 Coulton Waugh pictorial map of Long Island during the American Revolution. It is one of Waugh's rarer maps and the first example we have seen on the market. In general, Waugh's are admired for their rich inkwork reminiscent of 16th century Dutch Golden Age cartography, as well as for their graphically dense borders combining decorative elements with historical vignettes.
